Notes

Many other Saison Dupont recipes use malts and sugars in addition to Belgian Pilsner; however, many online sources (including a video of the brewery) indicate that Saison Dupont is made using 100% Dingeman's Belgian Pilsner malt. The yeast is also very important for this recipe. Wyeast 3724 is thought to be one strain isolated from Brasserie Dupont, but the actual yeast contains more than one strain. There are mixed reports of success on culturing the yeast from bottles, with some saying it is possible and others saying the strain is a different bottling yeast. Dupont also bottle conditions with the bottles laying on their side. If you pour the beer out of 750 ml bottle and hold the empty bottle up to the light, you will see remnants of deposits on one side of the bottle. The brewery video also mentions that their direct file kettles slightly scorch the wort, which changes the taste and color a bit.
